So I'm not so smart when you look at me, but there's more than you can see right here,
I've got a plan that kicks, gonna make me rich and buy an awfully big amount of beer,
It can be mine; one day I will succeed, but for the present I am content, and I can learn a lot from this TV.
Do you want a soda pop?
Tea doesn't take you to the top, yeah, you see.
Twenty-four hours in a given day, and you multiply that by nine,
Times ten, times four means the cash will pour into my lap, and keep me feeling fine,
Yeah, good things come to those who get up for the chase,
And one of these days I'll get myself in gear, but there's a little problem I now face.
It's that I'm not myself, I just can't understand,
Compromise has got way out of hand,
Sofa logic,
I'm not myself, I just can't understand,
Compromise has got way out of hand,
Just can't see what's ailing me,
Stagnation maybe, do, re, mi, fa, so.
Sofa logical,
Sofa logical.
Now that my hopes are sinking, I've done some big rethinking: maybe this is not my kind of work, (ditch work, let's play)
I need it fast and easy, don't wanna be too busy; that's the way I've always planned,
But now I find that...
That somewhere out along the way here, there great scheme to make it work - it disappeared.
Come help me off this sofa, excuse the mess now, would you?
I've hit inspiration: I'll save the human race from all its greed and its disgrace, as long as someone offers me the right amount,
Now I need some help.
'Cause I'm not myself, I just can't understand,
Compromise has got way out of hand,
Sofa logic,
I'm not myself, I just can't understand,
Compromise has got way out of hand,
Just can't see what's ailing me,
Stagnation maybe, do, re, mi, fa, so.
